multiplayer compatability
In the FAQ it says that for multiplayer you have to go and visit the chunks manually to load them in DH. I want to play DH client side with aternos, is there any way to generate the LODs without visiting the actual location (and have DH rendering without visiting every chunk)?

Distant Generation doesn't work in multiplayer, meaning DH won't be able to generate LODs for chunks outside the vanilla render distance.
Instead, as you travel around the world, LODs will be generated for areas you've visited.
In the next update, DH 2.3, you will be able to add DH to your server granted it's running a compatible mod/plugin loader (Fabric, (Neo)Forge, Bukkit and their derivatives). This will allow the server to generate LODs and send them to the client, making distant generation possible on multiplayer.
If you wish to try 2.3 early, read everything in this thread: https://discord.com/channels/881614130614767666/1285883332768563284
Keep in mind that this build is still experimental, we do not encourage using it on large servers until further testing.
I don't thing aternos allowes you to install nightly DH on it
But it should allow you to download the world
After you download the world, you canb paste it into single player worlds folder
Generate the LODs in singleplayer
And then copy the over to the correct multiplayer config
/lodstore
Single Player:
- Overworld:
.minecraft/saves/WORLD_NAME/data/DistantHorizons.sqlite
- Nether: .minecraft/saves/WORLD_NAME/DIM-1/data/DistantHorizons.sqlite
- End: .minecraft/saves/WORLD_NAME/DIM1/data/DistantHorizons.sqlite
- Custom Dimensions: .minecraft/saves/WORLD_NAME/DIMENSION_FOLDER/data/DistantHorizons.sqlite
Multiplayer:
- .minecraft/Distant_Horizons_server_data/SERVER_NAME/Make sure to have the same mods installed on the client as are on the server so that the world generates correctly
Aternos only allows you to download verified mods so probably not dh
